We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
We are delighted to present this newly refurbished, elegant one-bedroom apartment, set within the historic Lynton Court Mansions on Eastern Esplanade, perfectly positioned just moments from the seafront in the ever-evolving and increasingly sought-after coastal town of Margate.
Occupying a peaceful setting within this characterful building, the property immediately impresses with a long and graceful entrance hallway, complete with a charming archway that adds a sense of period character and understated elegance.
The accommodation flows effortlessly, offering a separate WC and a beautifully appointed shower room with a generous walk-in shower, alongside a practical storage cupboard.
The kitchen is set apart from the living space and has been thoughtfully fitted in a timeless shaker style, complemented by brand new appliances and neutral tones that enhance the calm and considered feel of the home.
The bedroom is well-proportioned and tranquil, while the lounge provides a truly special space in which to relax.
Bathed in natural light, this spacious room enjoys uninterrupted sea views towards Walpole Bay, with a bay window creating the perfect spot for a reading nook or quiet seating area to unwind and take in the ever-changing coastal scenery.
Located just a short stroll from the shoreline (approximately 2–3 minutes), the apartment offers effortless access to the seafront, while Margate train station (around 1 mile) and local amenities including Tesco on Northdown Road (approximately 0.5 miles) are all within easy reach.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a home that combines period charm with a serene coastal lifestyle, equally suited as a full-time residence, investment, or a peaceful seaside retreat to escape to throughout the year.
